Abstract

Over the past year, the WorkSafeBC-CHSPR Partnership team has been continuing to develop cutting-edge and policy-relevant research on work-related health in British Columbia. By combining WorkSafeBC data with the population-wide data available through Population Data BC, we are gaining important insights into the health, social, and economic effects of work-related illness and injury. This year has also brought considerable success to our trainees, who have published their Partnership-supported research in international journals, and have won awards at national conferences. In addition, we have been very active translating the results of our research to a variety of stakeholders through workshops, meetings, and the news media.
